Ben looking forward to meeting anyone and everyone that is willing to find solutions to the problems in our great state.

The Sedgwick County Coordinated Campaign is currently hiring canvassers. Your work will help elect Democrats in 2016 and help build our base for 2018.

Canvassers are people just like you. They’re teachers, business executives, parents, retirees, students…you name it. But the one thing they all have in common is their dedication to change. And the more canvassers we have, the bigger impact we can all make. Together.

He has served on the Wichita Board of Education for the past 15 years, and he stepped up for the children and parents in Wichita by serving either as president or vice-president of the board for 7 of those years.

Gabriel Costilla was born in TX to a life of poverty and strife. He went through many rough times, but with the help of family, friends, and the most resilient mother a son could ask for, Gabriel was able to climb out from the grips of poverty. As a young boy, Gabriel knew he’d go to college. He didn’t know how he would pay for it, but he knew (because his mother never let him doubt it) that he would go no matter how difficult the journey. He graduated from Texas Tech in 2011 and went on to get his certification to be a high school English teacher. Gabriel currently teaches at Wichita West High School, so that he can help disadvantaged youth like himself. Gabriel knows all too well the burden that Kansas Legislators have put on hard working people and children across this state. Gabriel didn’t plan on running for office, but when asked if he would run, he knew that he had to rise to the challenge.
